i was trying to upload this all day yesterday but it kept getting blocked. hopefully there are no more issues with it! sorry if there are any weird jump cuts/edits.
I’d describe this album as journeying through the seven wonders of the world. An album fit for some adventurer traveling and bustling down in hostels. It’s warm and light like the sun and has a wildlife and primal soundscape. With spanish melodies, bagpipes, and a balalaika, you feel like you’re getting to fly through the air to different parts of the world from one song to the next. Excavating our bones, basking in the sun, and viewing the smoke floating over the volcano give me such strong visuals.
This album gives me jungle vibes/ different parts of nature, so in that respect it feels pretty cohesive bc it feels like I’m traveling. The album art looks like she’s on a plane with sand so there’s that too
single wise, sunset, billion and blood and butter is just TOP TIER non singles, my favs are crude drawing, i believe, fly to you, butterfly net, smoke also, billion is a PERFECT closer i would say this album is way warmer than pang, even the visuals use warmer tones i think i believe reminds you of 2000s or 1990s j-pop. last thing, fly to you reminds me of little star by madonna, which is one of the best madonna songs
I Believe also reminds me of a song I can't place! I hope someone identifies it. Also, I *knew* you'd come around with the cohesiveness as you kept listening! 😂 It's been so much fun getting to know this record. At first listen, I didn't feel that any of the songs really stood out over the singles we were so acquainted with. I definitely blame that on familiarity because now I get little melodies from *every* song stuck in my head daily. Hourly, even! This album is non-stop memorable melodies, fun vocals, crisp, gorgeous production. She keeps getting better.
Loved the reaction! She said that Crude Drawing of An Angel was her attempt at a vibe of music that she loves, which she calls scorny music (scary and horny). She also said that she made a scorny playlist and i'm gonna need her to drop it honestly
I described 'Drawing of a crude channel' as sounding like a ice cavern. I think thats a good representation. EDIT: It also gave me Bjork's Medulla vibes.
crude drawing of an angel feels like i’m walking through a foggy forest at night with a full moon and i keep hearing sounds around me but i try not to acknowledge it
honestly the perfect album 🥹🤍 and i agree so much with what you said ab billions... the gods were with her in the studio when she was making this track bc HOW CAN A HUMAN BEING MAKE A SONG LIKE THIS??? either that or caroline is a siren fr 🫣
That falling synth line you were talking about in I Believe really reminds me of the song I Walked by Sufjan Stevens!! That's kind of obscure tho so you might have been thinking of something else 😭
I know you likely get tired of all the suggestions you get......but I'd love to see your reaction to the album "I Could Live In Hope" by Low. I love your videos, they've made me listen to some stuff I probably would have overlooked otherwise. Thank you!
Oh yeah have to add that obsolete Brooklyn hipster dads who write for Pitchfork are in a small world NYC circle…if they’ve played at baby’s alright they are prob in some way in the network of the small world circle…so it would be awkward af for such a local reviewer to “bad mouth one of their own”…the pitchfork score is no surprise. They wouldn’t be able to mobilize or circulate themselves without some level of social circle discomfort or ostracization in wanting to stay in the “good graces” of this network-as-net-worth small world circle. That’s why their reviews read…exactly that way.

just FYI it looks like the track marks are mixed up because of the cuts
So far no issues really, this album reminds me of Imogen Heap’s Speak For Yourself album which is Only a plus

its a train/metro train she's in on her album cover. or maybe a bus idk! 😍
@@phl0ra probably train
@@w.h.y.0061 thought so x
after listening to the whole album you realize the world it creates which is so mystical and cinematic i looove it!!!
single wise, sunset, billion and blood and butter is just TOP TIER
non singles, my favs are crude drawing, i believe, fly to you, butterfly net, smoke
also, billion is a PERFECT closer
i would say this album is way warmer than pang, even the visuals use warmer tones

I feel like Caroline would go online and check people's reactions to her album. If she sees this. Hello Caroline

It happened the same thing to me when i got to butterfly net, that song made me love the rest of the tracklist even more, like it just clicked.
the album clicked with me during Butterfly Net too. it is fantastic and transporting.

I'm in awe at how good billions is. The fake out chorus, the dilruba, tablas, the choir, how does she come up with this stuff??!
I believe probably reminds you of lightning by charli xcx. Synths in both songs come straight out of 80s.

Wow all this content piling up today ! KEEP IT COMING
2 vids in a day what’s going on? What a time to be alive

Excellent reviewer: no gratuitous comment and be warned: this album has a way of lodging in your subconscious! Thank you 💜🐱🎶
